Email Settings Section

The Email Settings section provides options for configuring email reporting for PVS, including the recipients of the email notifications, what charts appear in email notifications, and the time and frequency with which email notifications are sent. In the Email Settings section, hover over an existing email notification and click the paper airplane icon to send a report immediately.
